Shop “Made in Hamilton” for local finds

The Craftadian market is coming to Hamilton! Made in Hamilton will take place at McMaster Innovation Park on Saturday, August 26, 2017. Shop handmade items from 60 independant artists including jewellery and accessories, art, fashion, ceramics, illustration, stationery, home decor, cookware and more. Plus, there will be music by DJ Aerlie Wild, swag bag giveaways (at 10am and 2pm), an interactive photo booth, and food. Food vendors include Durand Coffee, Dimkin’s Crepe, De-Liz-ious Treats, Happy Bees Honey, Wild Heather Tea — and there will be outdoor tables and tents for Crazy Burrito and Prince Edward Fries.
